  In the mid-1870s, a violent spray of comets hits Earth, decimating cities, erasing shorelines, and changing the world's climate forever. And just as Earth's temperature dropped, so was civilization frozen in time. Instead of advancing technologically, humanity had to piece itself back together . . . In the twenty-first century, boats still run on steam, messages arrive by telegraph, and the British Empire, with its capital now in Delhi, controls much of the world. The other major world leader is the Czar of All the Russias. Everyone predicts an eventual, deadly showdown. But no one can predict the role that one man, Captain Athelstane King, reluctant spy and hero, will play . . .

  Many moons later Princess Shaylee returns with a young companion, Serena O’Halloran, who learns secrets while making friendships and discovers her importance in the realm.

  Shaylee and Serena unite once more and are thrust into the middle of a war in Faelynn. To their horror they learn … the dark lord has awoken and is searching for the powerful Tuatha Dé Danann treasure stones, so he can bring about the end of the Fae and the downfall of the once peaceful land. 
  With a spy in their midst, will they have the strength to take on the Zeytar necro-mage and the dark lord, or will the evil destroy them both, along with the rest of the Fae? 
  For Serena, time will tell, but time with the Fae can be costly.
